[0039] Figure 2 The invention is a principle block diagram of a frequency converter master-slave control system based on adaptive adjustment according to an embodiment of the invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0040] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0041] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a frequency converter master-slave control method based on adaptive adjustment is provided.

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, the frequency converter master-slave control method based on adaptive adjustment according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0043] The speed sensor and torque sensor are used to respectively collect the speed and torque of the master motor and the slave motor in real time, and the output frequency of the master inverter and the slave inverter is collected in advance;

[0044] Perform data preprocessing on the collected speed and torque of the master motor and slave motor, and the output frequency of the master inverter and slave inverter;

[0045] Among them, data preprocessing includes: data filtering and normalization preprocessing;

[0046] Calculate the operating status index according to the rotation speed and torque of the master motor and the slave motor and the output frequency of the master inverter and the slave inverter, wherein the operating status index includes: motor synchronization error and load imbalance;

[0047] The calculation of the motor synchronization error includes the following steps:

[0048] Calculate the synchronization error e between the slave motor and the master motor i , expressed as: e i =|ω main -ω i |;

[0049] Where n is the number of motors, ω main is the speed of the main motor, and for the i-th slave motor, its speed is ω i ;

[0050] Calculate the average synchronization error, expressed as:

[0051]

[0052] The change rate of the synchronization error is calculated to determine the development trend of the synchronization error, which is expressed as:

[0053] Among them, Δe i It is the change of synchronization error within the time interval Δt.

[0054] This technical solution helps to predict the deterioration of synchronization performance in advance and take adjustment measures in time by calculating the change rate of synchronization error.

[0055] The calculation of load imbalance includes the following steps:

[0056] Get the average load torque of the motor group, expressed as:

[0057] Among them, T i is the actual load torque of each motor,

[0058] Calculate the load imbalance, expressed as:

[0059] In this technical solution, the load imbalance L reflects the degree of deviation of each motor load from the average load. The larger the percentage value, the more unbalanced the load distribution.

[0060] According to the operating status indicators, adaptive adjustments are made, including: synchronization error adjustment and load imbalance adjustment;

[0061] The synchronization error adjustment includes: adjusting the output frequency of the master inverter and adjusting the tracking speed of the slave inverter;

[0062] Wherein, adjusting the output frequency of the main inverter includes the following steps:

[0063] When the synchronization error exceeds the set threshold, if the speed of the slave motor lags behind the master motor, it means that the speed of the master motor is relatively fast. At this time, if the output frequency of the master inverter is increased, the speed of the master motor will increase accordingly. The speed change of the master motor is transmitted to the slave motor through the mechanical connection or the connection of the control system, prompting the slave motor to accelerate, thereby reducing the speed difference with the master motor and gradually restoring synchronization. Conversely, if the speed of the slave motor is ahead, reduce the output frequency of the master inverter, slow down the master motor, drive the slave motor to slow down, and achieve synchronization. For example, set the synchronization error threshold to ±5%. When it is detected that the speed of the slave motor lags behind the speed of the master motor by 7%, increase the output frequency of the master inverter by 3Hz to correct the synchronization deviation.

[0064] The following steps are included in adjusting the tracking speed of the slave inverter:

[0065] If the slave motor speed lags behind, increase the tracking gain of the slave inverter so that it can follow the changes of the master inverter more quickly. After receiving the signal from the master inverter, the slave inverter responds with a higher gain and speeds up the adjustment of its own output frequency, thereby accelerating the slave motor. For example, increase the tracking gain of the slave inverter from 0.8 to 1.2 to enhance the slave motor's ability to follow the changes in the master motor speed.

[0066] The load imbalance adjustment includes: distributing the torque output;

[0067] The torque output distribution includes the following steps:

[0068] If the current load imbalance is large, torque output distribution is performed.

[0069] If one motor is overloaded and the other motors are lightly loaded, the torque output of the master and slave inverters needs to be redistributed. For motors with heavy loads, reduce the torque output setting value of their inverters accordingly to reduce the load on the motor. For motors with light loads, increase the torque output setting value of their inverters to make them bear more load. For example, there are three motors in the system. After monitoring, it is found that motor one is overloaded, while motors two and three are lightly loaded. At this time, reduce the inverter torque output setting value corresponding to motor 1 by 10%, and increase the inverter torque output setting value corresponding to motors two and three by 8% and 7% respectively to achieve balanced load distribution.

[0070] In addition, the technical solution, when applied, performs load imbalance adjustment, and also includes: adjusting according to load characteristics, including the following steps:

[0071] The characteristic curves of the motor and the load are pre-calibrated, and different types of motors and loads have different characteristics.

[0072] When adjusting the torque output, for constant torque loads, the torque output can be adjusted directly according to the preset ratio. For square torque loads such as fans and pumps, when adjusting the torque output, it is necessary to make more detailed adjustments based on the square relationship between the torque output and the speed to avoid system efficiency reduction or equipment damage due to improper torque adjustment.

[0073] Optimize communication and monitor communication status in real time. If the communication quality decreases, automatically switch the communication mode or adjust the parameters to ensure reliable data transmission;

[0074] Specifically, in application, the master inverter may be used to configure communication parameters so as to perform data exchange with the slave inverter and send the master control signal and its own operating status information to the slave inverter.

[0075] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a frequency converter master-slave control system based on adaptive adjustment is provided.

[0076] like Figure 2 As shown, the inverter master-slave control system based on adaptive adjustment according to an embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0077] The data acquisition module 1 is used to respectively acquire the speed and torque of the master motor and the slave motor in real time through the speed sensor and the torque sensor, and to acquire the output frequency of the master inverter and the slave inverter;

[0078] Data processing module 2, used for preprocessing the collected speed and torque of the master motor and the slave motor and the output frequency of the master inverter and the slave inverter;

[0079] The operating status indicator module 3 is used to calculate the operating status indicator according to the rotation speed and torque of the master motor and the slave motor and the output frequency of the master inverter and the slave inverter, wherein the operating status indicator includes:

[0080] Motor synchronization error and load imbalance;

[0081] The adaptive adjustment module 4 is used to perform adaptive adjustment according to the operating status index, including: performing synchronization error adjustment and load imbalance adjustment.

[0082] In summary, with the help of the above technical scheme of the present invention, the speed and torque of the main motor and the slave motor are respectively collected in real time by the speed sensor and the torque sensor, and the output frequency of the main inverter and the slave inverter is collected; the collected speed and torque of the main motor and the slave motor and the output frequency of the main inverter and the slave inverter are preprocessed; according to the speed and torque of the main motor and the slave motor and the output frequency of the main inverter and the slave inverter, the operation status index is calculated; according to the operation status index, adaptive adjustment is performed, which can not only improve the motor synchronization performance, control the synchronization error to a very small range, and improve production accuracy and product quality; optimize load distribution, avoid motor overload or underload, extend equipment service life, and reduce maintenance costs; and enhance system stability, ensure stable operation of the system when communication failure or inverter abnormality occurs, and reduce the risk of production interruption; improve energy utilization efficiency, avoid energy waste, and bring economic and social benefits.
